Here is what is absolutely great about the net - how else would anyone
come across a sentence like:
The topic that nearly toppled Parker's list was the decimation of the cod
fishery by seals.

Subject: [webartery] codepoetry
for myself, i feel less and less that i fit in with webartery although
i love the list - i don't see my work as codepoetry or as poetry, but as
a kind of investigation of issues - sexual/political/linguistic/philo-
sophical - every so often i try to explain myself - as in the sex/
anthrax/video piece I sent out a while ago. my interest in the literary -
in terms of my writing (not reading necessarily) is secondary - peripheral
- to the other issues. i'm not doing dynamic/interactive work - in the
past week i've finished a cdrom w/63 tracks, as well as two large video
pieces and a series of still image plus the texts - but this isn't in
evidence online - you'd have to get the cdroms or cds of course - the bit
i did in javascript years ago sits stillborn - i still use perl or what-
ever is necessary but sending out programs wouldn't mean much to most
people who don't work in a unix/linux environment. so - on one hand on
poetics, i'm seen - not as a poet but as some sort of weird phenomenon -
here i'm not seen as working in electronic poetry / new media, but as some
sort of weird phenomenon. not fitting in, i edited the american book
review issue on 'codework' - a term worked out with florian and myself as
far as i know - ken wark as well - to replace 'codepoetry' or whatever. so
that was published, covering talan (who also wrote for it), nn, myself,
mez, and others - jodi for example - now there are more people - but the
work doesn't fit in anywhere else - why doesn't anyone talk about nn's use
of language here for example which is equally original - then it's made
clear that language isn't enough - so we could bring her nato55 into the
mix or discussion. and if we're talking about talan or mez, why no dis-
cussion here about the _ideas_ in their work? who cares about influence or
style? if we stopped there, we'd be discussing scansion of sonnets. or for
that matter - the ideas in my work, etc.? the discussion seems, here, also
about tuning more and more - i've done piece _x_ - we'll discuss the
tuning - i don't do anything tunable unfortunately. where is brenda laurel
when we need her (computer as theater approach)? so the reason i'm writing
this - which isn't a rant or a fit but a sub-woofer murmur - i'm not sure
- i saw i wasn't in deena's examples - her compendium - and then someone
used the word or concept codepoetry to apply to my work and i felt, this
is missing the mark widely - so if i'm going to be in the interstices,
between the cracks in the floor (insisting there's no foundation), i'd
rather at least not be put in a literary camp - somewhere else, people
were trying to see me as a 'language poet' for example which fits even
less - elsewhere i'm a 'video artist' which makes no sense - on muckraker
i'm a musician - who knows whatever became of the dance work or early
choreography - so i'd rather be seen as unfit/fitful/not fitting-in - than
placed in uncomfortable positions - now they're interviewing mark anthony
or marc antony on television, i'd better go - alan
